Physics (AS & A Level) · May / June 2024 · Paper 12 · Question 9

A ball collides with a wall. Before the collision, the ball moves with velocity $8\,\mathrm{m\,s^{-1}}$ to the right. After the collision, it moves with velocity $3\,\mathrm{m\,s^{-1}}$ to the left. What is the change in velocity of the ball during the collision?

1. A5 m s⁻¹ to the left
2. B5 m s⁻¹ to the right
3. C11 m s⁻¹ to the left
4. D11 m s⁻¹ to the right
